How to Set Up Business Email Hosting on Microsoft 365 Outlook Using IMAP?

Although the email setup process in Business Email Hosting packages is similar to the setup of standard email accounts, there are some differences. Below, you can follow the step-by-step guide to setting up Business Email Hosting on Outlook via IMAP.

• Open the Outlook application
• Click the “File” button.

• In the window that opens, enter your email address (including the domain and extension) in the “Email Address” field.

• Check the “Advanced options > Let me set up my account manually” box.
• Click the “Connect” button.

• Click on the “IMAP” option.

• In the window that opens, you will be asked for some information. Enter the information as shown below.
  • The Incoming Mail settings are as follows:

    • Port: 993
    • Encryption method: SSL/TLS
